Role of saline nasal irrigation in the treatment of chronic rhinosinusitisAuthor: Dr. Brindusa Petrutescu, MD, Allergology and Clinical Immunology, Bucharest, RomaniaUse of saline nasal cleansing as non-drug treatment in many diseases of the nose and sinuses is not a novel concept. In yoga tradition and homeopathic medicine nasal lavage is a ritual, along with daily teeth-brushing.

Encourage patients with chronic rhinosinusitis to try this simple approach, January 2009 (Vol. 58, No. 1) Mari Egan, MD, MHPE; John Hickner, MD, MS. Department of Family Medicine, The University of ChicagoOtolaryngologists recommend saline irrigation after sinus surgery to clear secretions, debris, and crusts; reduce the risk of postoperative mucosal adhesions; and expedite mucosal healing. Saline irrigation is also gaining popularity as an alternative approach to chronic sinusitis symptom relief, and several randomized controlled trials (RCTs) have demonstrated both objective and subjective efficacy of this treatment for sinonasal disease.

I am a practicing physician in the field of pulmonary and critical care medicine. I suffered for several years from chronic sinus disease. After being evaluated by an Allergist and Ear, Nose, and Throat specialist, I had corrective surgeries on my sinuses. Of all the treatments tried for controlling and curing my symptoms of sinus disease, the one I found to work the best was a saline nasal rinse.

with standard oral or systemic drug delivery. Further
research is needed to better understand the pharmacodynamics
of topical drug use in the sinonasal cavities.

clinical studies. However, the nature of this relation remains unclear. We used the follow-up data from the European

General Medical Literature Review on Saline Nasal IrrigationNasal irrigations are often mentioned as adjunctive measures
in treating many sinonasal conditions. Despite their
widespread use, much mystique and uncertainty exist about
the indications and therapeutic mechanisms of nasal
irrigations. Anecdotal evidence and poorly controlled studies
add to the confusion. Recent evidence challenges some of the
assumptions underlying the use of nasal irrigations.
